About Ilam Durbar Tea
We grow and sell single-origin tea from the eastern slopes of Ilam, Nepal — one of the highest tea-growing regions in the world.
Our gardens
Our tea gardens sit between 1,500 and 2,200 metres above sea level, in the belt of mist that gives Ilam tea its characteristic depth. Cool nights slow the growth of the leaf, which concentrates the sugars and aromatics that make high-altitude tea distinctive.
Every leaf in this store was hand-plucked, with-picked and processed within a few kilometres of the field it grew in. Nothing is blended or flavoured.
How we work
- Direct trade — we buy from the gardens we work with, not from brokers.
- Small batch — each lot is processed and packed separately so you can taste where it came from.
- Full transparency — the district, elevation, harvest season and weight are listed on every product page.
- No artificial flavouring, colourants or scent additives of any kind.
What we sell
Black, green, white and oolong teas, herbal infusions, masala chai blends, and gift sets. Start with the shop if you are not sure — every product page tells you the garden, the altitude and what the cup tastes like.
